Thought this might interest some of you. I found this by googling and it is the school that my grandad went to.

My grandad is mention in the report November 2 1896
"The Master punished J. Shaw and Albert Allison for playing truant." His name was Albert Allinson, but people still spell it wrong!

Actually I did get into trouble once for playing truant!

Found this site fascinating, even more so when I found my grandad's name there.
